Since I haven’t posted pretty much all fall, I thought it would be a great idea to do a little fall in review post.
I did a tiny bit of art journaling at the beginning of October.
Then my focus changed. Instead I found myself at the sewing machine.
I finished my cozy scrappy quilt. It’s so snuggly…Mini-me has claimed it every time she comes home. I see another one in my future.
I earned this fun little piece of inspiration last month. These Fitbit badges are like a gold star…silly I know, but it makes me happy.
Another thing that was once again amazing was the Veterans day program at my school. We haven’t had the full program since the pandemic.
Local veterans and members of the community are invited to join us.
It was amazing to have close to 800 middle school kids quiet and respectful for an entire hour on the bleachers. They really stepped up and showed us how well behaved they know how to be.
Our display case was beautifully decorated with pictures and memorabilia of veterans that are part of our staff members families.
Including my dad…WWII veteran.
Marvin’s birthday is also on Veterans day. He turned 8 this year… he’s terribly embarrassed about it.
At Thanksgiving break, Mini-me brought home some succulents that were gifted to her. The plant in the yellow pot was so top-heavy that it wouldn’t even stand up anymore. I transplanted it and gave it a friendly owl to keep it company. I kept telling her how happy that plant made me…then it hit me…it looks like something out of Dr Suess. How could it not make me happy?!?
